Source for center caps for a-molds - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

Anyone know of a source for center caps for silver painted a-molds (like original, but not important if they have the same logo)?

I believe you can still get them from GM and places like Mid-America. Your best bet might be used though, they used to sell knocked-off ones from places that sold knocked-off A-molds. I suspect they've been prevented from continuing to do that by GM. But they were a lot cheaper than the GM stuff if you can find them used.

Also if it helps, if you have some caps that match but have the wrong center section, I can send you the '91+ emblem part you could glue on. You'd just need a cap with the black circle embedded in it that way.

I "converted" mine from the '91+ emblem to the '90 emblem a while back:

Bob, I'd be interested in the 91 wheel emblems if you have no need for them.

Aurora40 · 04-03-2009

Hey Scott. I have no need for them, seeing as how 1990 was the pinnacle ZR-1 model year.

Let's see if they'll solve the OP's problem first, otherwise they are yours.

I bought some black centers from Mid-America for my new black-powder coated '95 A-molds for my extra set of track tires. They were good...just not cheap! Look wicked on my '90 I think.

I'll pass on those emblems, so if someone else is interested, go for it. I appreciate the offer though. Thanks for the info

Best deal Ive seen on these is Ebay. Carter200 make a mean looking billet center cap as well

I have a brand new set of 4 GM in the box for $170 with free shipping. These are silver painted part # 10137865. I don't think you can find them cheaper. I have more in them than I am selling them for. They are correct for factory amolds.
